Title: Hello, keyboarders!
Post by: codingquark on Sat, 23 July 2016, 03:24:13

Hello everyone!

I have been using mech keyboard(s) for a few years now. I started with TVS Gold http://www.amazon.in/dp/B00U126ZGA (http://www.amazon.in/dp/B00U126ZGA) and a few months back got Atreus.

I've been enjoying the new Atreus, and now getting the urge to get more keyboards, key caps etc.  :D

Again, hello all :)

Welcome to Geekhack!

The TVS Gold has MX blue switches, right?  A non-standard layout, unfortunately, so finding a replacement keycap set will be a little difficult.

The Atreus is a completely different layout :))

What switches did you go for in the Atreus?

I'm not going to customize anything with the TVS. For Atreus, I have Matias clicky switches with blank ALPS. Having a hard time to find fancier keycaps for that.

Oh.  Alps keycaps are even harder to find.

mk.com has a Dolch Tai Hao set that might cover most of the Atreus: https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1362

Those all look good.

I just thought - why not make one more Atreus! Thinking about getting transparent acrylic with Zealios.
